All music lovers always connect the city of Venice with the famous composer Antonio Vivaldi.
Vivaldi The Manor House has four rooms with sizes ranging from 300 – 400 sq ft; allowing guests ample space. These fully air conditioned, non- smoking rooms are exquisitely decorated with real and reproductive antiques such as two charming oversized chairs and a writing/work desk. Named after one of the composer’s most notable works, the Vivaldi House was designed to be a safe and cozy space for all four seasons.
